After revealing the scene behind the mysterious door, Xiao Xiao felt a little uneasy and a little expectant. This underground world seemed like an endless maze, full of unknown dangers and possibilities. And they had no way out when they got here, so they had to keep going forward and uncover the mystery.

 Endless stone bridge

The team stood at the entrance of the stone bridge, with both ends of the bridge extending into the distance, as if connecting the other side of this world. The bridge deck was made of huge stone slabs, each of which was engraved with complex runes and emitted a faint light. Xiao Xiao felt the power of the bridge. This was not just an ordinary bridge, it was like a passage to an unknown world.

"We have to be careful, this bridge doesn't look simple," Qin Wentian said vigilantly.

Ye Qilin nodded in agreement. He gently touched a stone slab with his finger and felt a faint vibration coming from the bridge. The vibration seemed to be responding to their presence, as if some living thing was observing their every move.

"No matter what happens, we must stay calm," Xiaoxiao said firmly as she took the first step onto the stone bridge.

 Terrifying behemoth

Just after taking a few steps, the bridge suddenly shook violently, and the stone pillars around it began to emit a low roar. Xiaoxiao looked back and saw a huge shadow slowly moving in the abyss under the bridge, as if some huge creature had awakened in the abyss.

"Oh no, there's something!" Alicia screamed, her voice full of fear.

A huge black shadow suddenly jumped out from under the bridge and rushed directly towards Xiaoxiao. She dodged quickly, and the black shadow hit the bridge heavily with a loud noise. When they saw the monster clearly, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

It was a huge stone beast, huge in size, covered in heavy stone armor, with a cold light flashing in its eyes. Every step of the stone beast made the bridge surface shake constantly, as if its existence was to protect the bridge and prevent anyone from trying to pass through.

"Prepare for battle!" Qin Wentian shouted loudly, he drew his sword and quickly rushed towards the giant beast.

Ye Qilin and Alicia also quickly entered the battle state, while Xiaoxiao clenched the dagger in her hand, looking for an opportunity. The giant beast's defense was extremely strong, and ordinary attacks could not cause any damage to it, but its attacks were extremely fierce and could force them into a desperate situation at any time.

 A life-or-death battle

The battle lasted for a long time, and everyone was exhausted, but the stone beast showed no signs of weakening. Qin Wentian's full-strength attack was easily blocked by the stone beast, and he was shocked back a few steps. Ye Qilin took the opportunity to attack from the flank, but the stone beast reacted very quickly and swept his tail, almost throwing him off the bridge.

Xiao Xiao noticed that although the stone beast's movements were swift, the rune on its chest would light up for a moment after each attack. She guessed that this might be the stone beast's weakness. While the stone beast's attention was focused on Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin, she quickly went behind it and looked for an opportunity.

"Now!" she shouted, signaling Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin to attack the front of the stone beast with all their strength to attract its attention.

As she expected, the stone beast put all its energy on the enemy in front. Xiao Xiao jumped up suddenly and stabbed the dagger deep into the rune on the stone beast's chest. A violent vibration came from the stone beast's body, and the rune burst into a strong light. The stone beast let out a painful roar, then fell to the ground with a bang, turning into a pile of rubble.

 Towards the end

After the stone beast fell, the bridge returned to calm, and the roars around gradually disappeared. Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and put down the dagger in her hand. Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin walked to her side, with a trace of admiration and gratitude in their eyes.

"We did it," Qin Wentian said softly, with a feeling of surviving a disaster in his tone.

"The end should be in front," Ye Qilin pointed to the other end of the bridge, where a huge door frame could be vaguely seen. There was a bright light above the door frame, as if leading them forward.

"No matter what the end is, we are ready," Xiaoxiao said firmly, her fists clenched and her eyes determined.

They continued to move forward, their steps firm and steady. Although the stone bridge was full of dangers, they finally reached the end. In front of the door, they stopped and exchanged a firm look.

"Let's go in together," Qin Wentian said. He placed his hand on the door frame and felt the slight vibration coming from inside the door.

Xiao Xiao nodded, and Ye Qilin agreed. The three of them pushed open the huge stone door at the same time. The light behind the door became brighter and brighter, gradually enveloping them, as if guiding them to the ultimate answer.

 Facing the truth

The scene inside the stone gate shocked them. This was a huge underground temple, with countless ancient runes and murals carved on the walls, recording the history and secrets of this site. In the center of the temple was a huge stone tablet, with lines of ancient text engraved on it, as if telling a forgotten story.

Xiaoxiao walked forward and gently stroked the words on the stone tablet, feeling a deep power. This stone tablet seemed to be the core of the site, hiding the truth they had been looking for.

“What’s recorded here should be the answer we’ve been looking for,” Qin Wentian whispered, his eyes fixed on the stone tablet, a hint of nervousness and anticipation in his expression.

"Perhaps, this will be the end of our journey," Ye Qilin added, with a hint of awe in his voice.

Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and looked up at the words on the stone tablet. She knew that they were about to uncover an ancient and mysterious secret, a secret that could change their fate. And this secret was the ultimate goal of their journey.
